Version number: v101
Author's name: Jobst Hoffmann

Summary description: A package for the creation of Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
The package provides a collection of LaTeX macros to create Nassi Shneiderman diagrams. It is based on the LaTeX picture environment, but by the use of additional packages (e.g. pict2e) the limitations of the picture macros concerning fixed slopes are nullified. Version v101 contains a new set of macros to display parallel tasks.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/struktex/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/struktex (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

struktex – Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts
Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms. Nassi-Shneiderman charts are a well known tool to describe an algorithm in a graphical way. The package offers some macros for generating those charts in a LaTeX document.
The package provides the most important elements of a Nassi-Shneiderman charts, including processing blocks, loops, mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. The charts are drawn using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference).
